Still Unwinding is the seventh studio album by the English band The Rubettes. It was released on the Polydor label in October 1978, just seven months after their previous studio album Sometime In Oldchurch.[1] It was the last album the band released in the 1970s - their next album Shangri'la, despite being recorded in 1979, was not released until 1992.[2]
